The ideas presented are fleshed out nicely, with lots of stats at various power levels, making it very easy to tailor to any level of play...Unfortunately, for me, I was hoping for more elements ala Darkmatter, or perhaps Conspiracy X. The mystics will be developed more in a following book, and though the psions are presented, it left me wanting more. The small writeup on "Chemical monsters" is nice, but I feel it could have been, well, more...Personally, I wish they would have included more on the setting instead of all the details of the chambers. Where are the hotspots? where are the thrilling locations? where's the greater threat that the world is being protected against? or maybe I missed something in my first read...I guess a few extra pages may have helped, perhaps upping the count from 256 to 320, and filling in the blanks. It's a good buy for the price, though not quite up to par as the Spycraft rules.So until the rest of the books start hitting the market, I'll keep working on a Conspiracy X conversion to plug into Shadowforce archer... you can never have too many secret agancies working in the shadows... <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /></blockquote>
